Rem 600 in .35 Rem,,,,?

[Alan in GA]

I'm known for buying rifles that I, for "some" reason,,like. Many of these rifles are then scrutinized by the gun buddys in the local circle and often "WHY?" is their response!
Found another one of my rifle wishes today, and old Remington 600 in .35 Rem. I like about any .35 cal rifle, but these little rifles are just a real oddity in the .35 rifle realm.
It's in a local shop among a group of rifles brought in by for appraisal.
I mentioned to the shop owner that I wanted a shot at this one IF the group of guns did get to be sold by the shop.
I would put lighter pistol bullets thru it just for kicks I guess.

What are they going for,,,say 80% condition?
Any of you guys have and use one?

Never even seen one, except in a catalog.

But I do have a question about them.

The 35 Rem has a smaller base than standard "0.473" so I wonder if the standard bolt face works or if these have a smaller bolt face for the 35 Rem.

,,,,and I did 'look' at the bolt face. I've always thought they were of a custom dimension JUST FOR the .35 [odd size] case head,,but I never actually measured one.
I can do that when I get back over there.

This is one of those,,,"never had one,,always wanted one,,don't NEED one,," rifles. Of course the KEY WORD is 'want'.:D
I'll just enjoy playing with it,,I got lots 'o .357 and .358" bullets that need launching. Bullets should not spend their life in the boxes,,but get spit out of rifle bores at some time. It makes them happy.:)
